About this project
It has long been my dream to hear my music on vinyl and it has finally reached a level of quality that I feel deserves this treatment.
Taken from the full-length Everson Poe album "Maiden Of Fire", the three tracks that comprise the Monument EP, "In Fire", "Plague", and "Monument" are filled with dark energy and raw emotion, and come together to form a cohesive collection of music. The digital version of the EP also includes the bonus remix of "Hand In Hand".
My goal is to make 250 copies of this 7" EP on vinyl, which will come in custom jackets, and have hand numbered inner sleeves. This will be a limited edition item.
The money raised will cover every step of the vinyl production process, the jacket printing process, and shipping (both to me and then to you).
I have offered a series of rewards that range from $5 to $500, which should allow anyone who would like to help me achieve this goal be a part of it.
FAQ
-
Yes, it is. Justine Hirten, who also did the artwork for the full-length album, made this beautiful piece of art for me, and the Everson Poe logo was designed by Rowan Henry Hamilton.

As soon as the 30 days are up (August 31st) and you have pledged at least $5, you will receive a link to download a zip file containing the four tracks for the EP as well as a digital booklet.
The full-length album will be released shortly thereafter.
-
Though that is dependent on when the records are pressed and make it to me, I can always ship your baked goods ahead of time, if you really need some noms.
-
Then I will either deliver your stuff or you can come pick it up from me, which will also allow us to get a chai or hot chocolate.

The EP comes with all three tracks in high-quality MP3 format with embedded artwork & lyrics and a PDF booklet, plus the bonus remix of "Hand In Hand". "Maiden Of Fire" comes with 14 tracks in high-quality MP3 format with embedded artwork & lyrics and a PDF booklet.
-
It depends on how long it takes to get the records pressed, or if you will be getting something more than just a record. As soon as I know how long it will take, you will know when you are getting them. But definitely no later than the end of October.
